FAITH OR DESPAIR? Jack Tierney, Chairman of the Social coun-cil
spent some anxious moments wondering if we were going to have
enough snow (or ice) for the Sno Daze program. Exactly four minutes
and thirty-three seconds after this picture was taken, it snowed. (Photo

Bethel Sem Joins
Rev. M. Wessman Brings
Nat'l Association
Deeper Life Messages
On December 10, the administration of Bethel seminary was noti-fied
of the seminary's admittance into the American Association of
Theological Seminaries as an associate member.
This decision, approved by the
association at a meeting held in
New York City Dec. 7 and 8 ad-mits
the school to the only accred-iting
association for theological
seminaries in the United States.
The rank of associate member
does not, however, signify full ac-creditation.
It does mean that the
seminary is listed in the associa-tion's
bulletin; taind this is expect-ed
to give the school added pres-tige
and recognition. The goal of
the seminary is' full membership
in the association.

application at this time is partly
due, according to Dean Omark, to
the fact that a sufficient degree of
separateness has been shown to
exist between the seminary and
the college, particularly in regard
to the library and the financial
structure.
Other qualifications which the
seminary was required to meet
for admittance concerned the num-bers
of full-time, qualified teach-ers,
the number of students, and
operation on a post-college level
with the maintenance of a strong
educational program.
Five students, representing all
college classes, maintained "A"
averages during fall quarter. They
are Linden Magnuson, senior;
George Dvirnak, junior; Evan
Rogers, sophomore; and Richard
Benert and John Tyberg, fresh-men.
An unusually large "B" honor
roll includes 18 seniors, 14 jun-iors,
18 sophom.ares, 31 freshmen,
and one unclassified student.

The second in the series of
three polio vaccine shots is sched-uled
for Jan. 21-25, from 11 a.m.
to 1 p.m. at the Health Service.
Everyone who had his first shot
Nov. 26-30 should have his sec-ond
at this time. Anyone who is
due for his third shot should also
report.
Students who have not reached
their twentieth birthday will re-ceive
the vaccine free of change.
Others may obtain it for a fee of
$1.

Rev. Wessman's messages, the
first of which he brought in chapel
yesterday, are built around the
general text of II Corinthians 5:17,
"All things are become new." In-dividual
topics include "A New
Being," "New Horizons," "A New
Dependence," "New Paths," and
"A New Urgency".
Rev. Wessman is popularly ac-cepted
as a youth counsellor every-where
he goes, as well as in his
own church and the Sioux Falls
penitentary where he serves as
chaplain.
He has served on the Sioux
Falls college board of trustees and
at pres.ent is chairman of Bethel's
board of education. He has acted
as moderator of the Baptist Gen-eral
conference and has been a
member of the conference board of
trustees. Rev. Wessman received
his Th.B. from Bethel seminary
and his B.A. from Augusta.na col-lege.

New Bell System
Now Installed
Financed by the 1956 class gift,
an IBM master time and program
control system was installed in
the college building and the lib-rary
during Christmas vacation.
The four new clocks are super-vised
each hour and are individ-ually
advanced or retarded to cor-respond
to master clock time.
Chimes have been ordered for the
upstairs library and for Pres.
Lundquist's, office.
The new bell system replaces
one which has been serving the
school for 35 years'. Dean Omark,
then a .student in. the academy,
presented the first system as a
class gift in 1921.
Wessman's topic in the
of the third in a series
Central Baptist church in Sioux
counsel with Rev. Wessman should
make appointments with Bonnie
Toews in the Student Affairs of-fice.
Students are also encouraged
to seek out faculty members from
whom they can receive guidance.
Prayer services will fallow each
evening's vesper service in the
side room of the college chapel.
Film on Greece
To Be Shown
"The Ancient World: Greece"
will be shown in the college chapel
at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 19. This is the
second film that the cultural coun-cil
has sponsored this year.
In the film Greek civilization of
the fifth century before Christ is
expressed in the literature and art
of the time which has been dis-covered.
The narration has been
drawn entirely from translations
of the works of ancient Greek au-thors.
The religious philosophy of an-cient
Greece is discussed with
stories of seven of the more im-portant
gods, concluding with
Athena.
Development of Greek civiliza-tion
from earliest times to the
Golden Age with descriptions of
the Minoan civilization are fea-tured.
Pericles' reign during the Gold-en
Age was the period when, "all
things, all around, were teeming
with the mellow gifts of peace".
The works of this time have been
described as follows: "The works
grew, all surpassing in their mag-nitude,
. . . as if they were pos-sessed
of a spirit that can never
fade and a soul that never grows
old."
The finest works of the times
are shown throughout the film.
Such things as ceramic paintings,
sculpture and monumental archi-tecture
add interest to the film.
The musical score was composed
by .Menelaas Pallandios and per-formed
by the Athens Symphony
Orchestra.

During their first two months in the United States, the Bethel-sponsored
Domke family has been introduced to some uniquely American
institutions such as drive-in restaurants, supermarkets, and Halloween
parties.
Bethel students will remember that Mrs. Olga Domke arrived from
Germany a week after homecoming with her two 'daughters and a son.
Erika, 24, is now working in a downtown' dress shop; Lilli, 21, is doing
housework for another family; and Erwin, 27, is an orderly in the
Swedish hospital in Minneapolis.
The Domkes live in a four-room apartment located at 761 N.
Snelling avenue (across from Hamline university). The spaciousness
of the .apartment was strange to them as they were used to the one-room-
per-family arrangement, so common in Europe; they were also
surprised by the central heating and hot and cold running water which
are rare outside of the United States.
Although they knew no English when they arrived here, they are
readily picking it up with the aid of the many friends they have made
at Bethel and at Central Baptist church where they attend.

More on School Spirit
Dear Editor:
I have noticed several references
to our lack of school spirit in re-cent
editions of the CLARION. I
agree with the editors that it
could be improved, but I haven't
seen any concrete suggestions.
An individual who has school
spirit feels himself to be part of
all that goes on on the campus.
He isn't an aloof spectator whose
only remark when a new event is
announced is "What are they do-ing
now?" School spirit is the
sum total of the kind of spirit
each one of us shows as individ-uals.
Before we become critical
next time, let's ask ourselves,
"What kind of a spirit am I show-ing
? Am I just a drag on those
who are contributing?" . . .
It is nice to be entertained by
the endless variety of campus ac-tivities,
but only when we have
helped bring these things about,
will we really know the thrill at-tached
to them. We get out ex-actly
what we have put in. If you
come to the Sno Daze banquet
certain that it will be dull and un-interesting,
it probably will be. If
you come with expectance you
will be rewarded. To have real
school spirit, we must throw our-selves
enthusiastically into every-thing
we take part in. We should
become so identified with the or-ganizations
we belong to that our
loyalty to them and to our school
will exceed our concern for self.
Of course, there are those for
whom no thing in the entire world
of reality could generate any en-thusiasm.
Whether we announce a
musical convocation, play or even
Christmas vacation, they are
negative. For them to generate
school spirit, we will have to cre-ate
imaginary heros on the cam-pus.
I suggest we install a comic
book rack with comics depicting
President Lundquist as Superman,
Dean Larson as Dick Tracy, and
Dean Anderson as the Lone Ran-ger.
With Superman to rescue
them from the grips of the villain-ous
professors, Tracy to ferret
out the crooks who are getting
rich on the exorbitant profits of
the coffee shop, and the Lone Ran-ger
to gallop over to the brutal
dorm supervisor and prove their
innocence, they would be able to
identify themselves with "real"
heros, and escape all their trou-bles
besides!
Nuf sad?

Why Not Here?
Dear Editor:
Each week I read some thirty
or more newspapers from other
colleges and universities around
the United States to see if there
are any articles worth reprinting
in the CLARION. While doing so,
I note many items that are of in-terest
to other campuses. All this
leads me to ask the following
It Happens
Every Year
Three campus couples announc-ed
their engagements during
Christmas vacation. Bobbie Wall
and Ed Brunzell, and Sheila New-lander
and Ken Albright chose
Chicago while Lillian Boyer and
John Reed became engaged in Cal-if
ornia.
Seven Bethel students and one
faculty member became engaged
to someone at home. Sporting
sparklers when classes resumed
were Betty Mattson, Beth Magnu-son,
Lois Bienhoiff, Carol Tschetter
and Miss Kennedy, instructor of
music. Neil Anderson, Dick Otto-son,
and Bob Reynolds "jumped
through the hoop" as one of them
put it. Bob Reynolds became en-gaged
to Bev Bowman who attend-ed
Bethel last year.
Congratulations!
Happy ew Year
Some resolutions that will never
be made:
Mr. Healy: "I resolve to stop
wearing elevator shoes."
DT. Bass : "I resolve to drink
nothing but coffee."
Dr. Conrad: "I resolve not to
cheer at Bethel games."
Dr. Grabill: "I resolve to stop
asking pointed questions."
Mr. Dalton: "I resolve to vote
straight Republican."
Mr. C. H. Smith: "I resolve to
allow unlimited choir cuts."
Miss Nelson: "I resolve to give
all the girls three &docks once a
week."
Mr. Peterson: "I resolve to buy
a hi-fi-set for all rooms in Edgren
residence."
Miss Axeen: "I resolve to buy
nothing but Pogo for the library."
Mr. Engwall: "I resolve to stop
telling.jakes in class."
questions:
1. Why is there both no mention
of, no interest in, the annual com-petition
for "Who's Who Among
Students in American Universities
and Colleges?" This is a listing of
campus leaders in every field, and
from some of the mediocre ac-complishments
that other cam-puses
boast their leaders of hav-ing,
I am sure that Bethel would
more than qualify for some of our
student leaders to get in.
2. Why is there not a group
health program similar to the Blue
Cross-Blue Shield plan in effect
for our students ? Other schools
have it and the students get lower
rates than they would on their
own. This would provide much
greater coverage than the present
health program does with its limi-ted
benefits.
3. Why is there no medium for
the students to express themselves
creatively in ? I refer to a so-called
"literary supplement" or
once-a-year publication that would
have the best articles, short-stor-ies,
poetry, etc., in it. This is not
a project for a campus newspaper
such as the CLARION because
there is too much expense and
work involved for the regular
staff to handle.
Possibly there are simple an-swers
to all these questions. If so,
then there has been no mention
either of the questions or the an-swers
in the little over two years
that I have been here.
Sincerely,
Paul Schlueter

The beginning of any year is
characterized by a review of the
past and an anticipation of •the
future. In a business this is known
as taking inventory.
Have you ever stopped to take
inventory of what you appreciate
most about Bethel? I was forced
to do so after a friend asked me
that question.
Many things came to my mind:
the facilities, the students, the
teachers, etc., but every school has
these. After much thought and
reminiscing over the past years, I
believe the thing that I apprec-iate
most about Bethel is one of
the principles upon which John
Elexis Edgren founded the Semin-ary
some eight decades ago and
which persists until today:
"The relation between teachers
and students should not be that
of superior and subordinate, but
one of real friendship and help-fulness,
remembering that one is
our master, and we are all bre-thren."
As students, we appreciate this
atmosphere and hope it will con-tinue.

Mix Holiday Custom
by Betty Ohlin
Christmas had a touch of home
this year for Marcia Cheng of
Hong Kong, who attended a party
for Chinese students. Instead of
turkey, the menu called for Wan
tan soup with thicken and rice.
Our familiar carols were sung, in
Chinese.
Nancy Choi celebrated the holi-day
in German tradition while
visiting at the home of Elfriede
Mohr.
Santa found Gay Feiler with
her grandparents in Wisconsin and
was happy to find enough snow to
use his sleigh instead of the cari-bou
and Army jeep of Guam.
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Hornsby
spent their first American Christ-mas
in the Cities. They did not
hear their Queen's Christmas ad-dress
as usual, following their
Swedish Christmas dinner, but did
have plum pudding.
Right at home in Scandinavian
Minnesota were Mr. and Mrs. An-ders
Nisbel of Sweden. They at-tended
an all-Swedish Julotta ser-vice
early Christmas morning and
feasted lutefisk in the afternoon.

Leviticus 25: 35-7
In the December 28 "Standard" Pres. Lundquist presented some
irderesting figures on student aid and some good goals. The need for
long-term loans for students is clear, as the president said.
However, it seems to us that the biggest weakness of our present
system is the exharbitant 12 per cent (one per cent a month) usury
assessed.
One defense made of this rate is that the interest is returned to
the fund. But this is really taxing the poorer students, just when they
most need money, to provide for students of the future. Is this right?
If it is, why should not the rich be taxed as well?
Another argument for the 12 per cent grab is' that not all students
pay back their loans. But Pres. Lundquist's article says that the re-payment
has been "good and generally prompt." And why should only
the poorer students pay for others' lack of ethics?
We feel that loans should be made interest-free throughout the
year and .a reasonable rate of five or six per cent charged only through-out
the .summer or after graduation. If it is argued that we are too
poor or small a school to have this program similar to Wheaton's, we
point to Bryan university's program. They have fewer facilities and
only 275 students.
It is interesting to note that if all the money in the loan fund
($11,000) is in use throughout the entire school year (nine months),
the interest will double the principal in eight years. And all at the
poorer students' expense.
Clarion Opinion
The CLARION, or any other newspaper, is generally agreed to
exist for the reflection of opinion as well to print news. But the ques-tion
that must be answered to complete this statement is "Whose
opinion should it be?"
There are several possible answers, one of which we believe to
correct.
Some might say that the CLARION should reflect the opinion
of the student body. They give most to its support. And shouldn't the
paper cover the gamut •o f student life?
Others, who like to think of close co-operation between students,
faculty, and administration might think that the CLARION should be
a mouthpiece for the whole campus community. Advances have been
made lately in giving students a greater voice in academic and admini-strative
matters; this action should work both ways.
There remains another answer—that the paper should express the
'opinion of its editorial staff. This, it seems to us, is the best answer,
and this is no because of our Machiavellianism.
To reflect mass student opinion would be nearly impossible, and
would make the CLARION a mere Spire supplement, recording cam-pus
thought for the year. Putting up a united front with the faculty
and administration as well would mean the stoppage of all self-criticism.
It takes the expression of the viewpoints of only a few persons to
accomplish what we believe to be the basic reason for including opinion
in the CLARION—that is, to create opinion in the minds of our readers.

Bill Conrad led second half scoring as he picked up 12 points. Bob
Pommerenke and Howie Rekstad were close on his heels each hitting
11 points.
Ragged play characterized the closing minutes for General Beadle,
giving the Royals several scoring opportunities.
Four Royals were in the double figures when the final totals were
registered. Bill Conrad led with 24; Bob Pommerenke and Rekstad fol-lowed
with 21; and Westin hit ten..
Bob Rumrill and Darrell Davis picked up 19 and 16 points respec-tively
for General Beadle.
The next Royal home is scheduled for Jan. 14, when St. Cloud

Milton Takes
Bethel Places
Milton college from Milton Wis-consin
won the unofficial cham-pionship
of the Twin City Invi-tational
Tournament, played at
Bethel Dec. 28 and 29, by knock-ing
off Bethel and Northwestern
on successive nights.
In Friday night's contest with
Bethel they were pressed to win
as they topped the Royals 78-74.
It was a game of excellent guard
play with Milton's Shultz and
Bartz scoring 22 and 18 points
respectively with their driving
tactics.
Bethel's guards, Conrad, Porn-merenke,
and Singleton threw in
25, 8, and 4 to give the Royals
half their points. Rekstad and
Borms scored 11, and 13 points far
the other important offensive con-tributions.
Milton continued its successful
ways by beating Northwestern 81-
71, thanks to a fine rebounding
game by Podwell and Sisson, to
became the only completely suc-cessful
team in the tournament.
Bethel, in their Saturday night's
game, tipped Aurora, the fourth
team in the tourney, 69-65 in a
rather weird contest. The Aurora
coach, seeking to keep his team
from a shellacking similar to the
one pit had received from North-western
the night before, had his
team stalling. Then fanned
out 30 - 50 feet out from
the basket and passed the
ball around until someone saw an
opportunity to drive in for a lay-up.
Bethel Halts
Holiday Foes
Bethel's basketball team rolled
up two straight vacation triumphs
prior to the Twin City Invitational
Tourney, by handily defeating
Wahpeton 83-66 Dec. 14, and stop-ping
Huron 75-63 Dec. 20. Both
games were played at home.
In the Wahpeton game, Bethel
rolled up a comfortable 42-30 half
time advantage, and coasted home
on the scoring of Rekstad and
Westin who scored 22 and 15
paints respectively.
Huron played the Royals on
practically even terms the first
half as they were only two down,
35-33 at intermission. But Pom-merenke
and Conrad, with strong
help from centers Rekstad and
Westin, led the team to its vic-tory
before the meager crowd.

Bethel in the first half played
a straight man for man and Aurora
managed to hold Bethel to a 27-25
halftime advantage. But by play-ing
a two man. zone and a three
man press to keep Aurora from
stalling, Bethel solved their of-fense
and piled up a 10 point ad-vantage'
by the waning minutes.
When Bethel's second stringers
were sent in, Aurora closed the
gap to its final four point deficit.
Royals Top Beadle 89-68
The Bethel Royal h'ardwood'ers avenged a grid defeat by General Beadle, as they administered an 89-
68 shellacking to the visiting club last Friday night.
Three Royals hit double figures in the first half as Bethel built up a 48-29 half-time !advantage. Bill
Conrad led the way, picking up 12 points. Howie Rekstad and Bob Pommerenke each scored ten points.
Bob Rumrill, the 6'4" guard, and Darrell Davies garnered nine and eight points respectively for General
Beadle T. C.
Bethel took an early 4 - 2 advantage and was never headed. Rebounding and more solid teamwork
paved the way to the Royal victory.
Early in the 'second half the General Beadle five caught fire temorarily and closed the gap to seven
points at one stage. A Royal time out apparently put them back together, as they spurted to the final
89-69 winning margin.

NSA Explained to Senate
Guest speaker at the last Student Senate meeting, December 13,
was Jim Greeno, Student Congress president at the University of
Minnesota and Regional Chairman of the National Student association.
He explained the work of the NSA and spoke of the benefits for each
belonging school.
Approximately 300 college student bodies belong to this confedera-tion.
Bethel has been a member of the NSA for the past three years.
and last year Hope Seffens, a col-lege
junior, was elected Regional
Secretary for the Minnesota-Da-kota
region.
"The two paramount problems in
Russia are housing and agricultur-al
production," stated Dr. Henry
Dupre at convocation Friday, Janu-ary
4.
Last summer Dr. Dupre spent 12
days of a 6-week tour of Europe
in Russia with 49 other educators.
For several years Dr. Dupre, dean
and chairman of the history depart-ment
of Macalester college, has
been leading the Sherwood Eddy
tour of Europe.
During the tour Dr. Dupre had
conferences with Antoine Pinay,
French foreign minister, George
Bohlen, United States ambassador
to Russia, and Marshall Tito, Yugo-slav
dictator, at which the Russian
situation was discussed.
Following the interview with Ti-to
the group flew to Kiev, the capi-tal
of the Ukraine. Moscow and
Leningrad were the other chief
cities visited.
Tours of collective farms, agri-cultural
and industrial expositions

they spoke to officers on the farms,
the ambassador, pastors, priests, a
Jewish rabbi, and the common peo-ple
gave the educators an interest-ing
understanding of Russian life.
Dr. Dupre described the people
as warm, friendly, healthy, dressed
in nondescript taste, and uninter-ested
in the Communist ideology.
Propaganda is by far the biggest
business in Russia according to Dr.
Dupre. There are 6,000 schools to
train 185,000 students to be pro-fessional
agitators.
Dr. Dupre emphasized Russia's
educational program, quoting Sta-lin
who called education a weapon.
He described the educational sys-tem
which is based on a ten-year
school program compulsory for all
between the ages of 7 and 17.
Young people attending the Uni-versity
of Moscow receive free tui-tion
and stipends according to
grades.
In conclusion Dr. Dupre describ-ed
religion in Russia. He quoted
William 0. Douglas, recently re-turned
from visiting Russia, as
saying, "Religion will last as long
as the Russian people."
Seven Bethel faculty members
spent part of their Christmas va-cation
in attending out-of-town
academic conferences in their res-pective
fields.
Dr. Richard Curtis, associate
professor of speech, traveled to
Chicago for a meeting of the
Speech Association of America. Dr.
Paul Grabill, assistant professor
of English, and Dr. Virginia Gra-bill,
professor of English, spent
four days at the annual Modern
Language association meetings in
Washington, D.C.
The annual convention of the
American Society of Church His-tory
was attended by Dr. Virgil
Olson, seminary professor of
Church History.
Some teachers took in more than
one conference. Reuben Omark,
professor of Exegetical Theology,
attended the annual meetings of
the Society for Bible Literature
and Exegesis held at Union Sem-inary
in New York City and then
left for Philadelphia for a confer-ence
of the Evangelical Theologi-cal
society.
Dr. Anton Pearson, professor of
Old Testament Language and Lit-erature,
attended four conferences
in three days. Traveling to New
York with Prof. Omark for the
meetings on Bible Literature and
Exegesis, he remained there for
convention's of the National As-sociation
of Professors of Heb-rew
and the National Association
of Bible Instructors, and a Textual
Criticism seminar.
Gift Sent by Wives
To N. Minn. Family
In kepeing with the Student
Wives project theme, "Doing for
0:hers", a large box of clothing
and food was sent to a needy min-ister
and his family in northern
Minnesota. To the last meeting on
Dec. 10 each student wife brought
food, good used clothing, and mon-ey
to buy new clothes for the
family.
At this meeting, the student
wives also decided on their project
for the year, which will be to send
money to the Tezpur hospital in
Assam, India. Funds for this pro-ject
will be raised through offer-ings
taken at the regular monthly
meetings.
Dr. Bass Meets
A Samaritan
During the activity of the Huron-
Bethel vacation-time basketball
game, T. B. Bass rushed into the
fieldhouse. He was moving and
needed the aid of some strong,
hefty men to help him carry a
barrel of china. Eager to help,
Bill MacKinney volunteered to as-sist
T. B. in hoisting the mon-strous
burden up a flight of stairs
nearly as long as eternity.
While T. B. was fumbling with
his door key, Bill picked up the
barrel and carried it inside all by
himself. T. B. thanked Bill and
toddled away.
ThatcherCommends
Bethel Students
Bethelites employed by the Far-mers'
Union Grain Terminal are
paid a high compliment by M. W.
Thatcher, general manager of G.
T. A., in a recent letter to Presi-dent
Lundquist.
"I want to say to you," writes
Mr. Thatcher, "what I have said
many, many times to others—the
students whom you sent us for
part-time work in G. T. A. are cer-tainly
outstanding. Their Christ-ian
understanding and approach
to all problems has been a very
real inspiration to many of us ov-er
here.
"I want to sincerely commend you
for the outstanding contributions
which Bethel College is making to-ward
the enrichment of our lives
and those of the countless thou-sands
that will be touched by your
seminarians and pastors out over
the world."
Supper Planned
By Hagstromites
Hagstrom residents are planning
a pot luck supper for all married
students and their families on cam-pus
on Saturday, Jan. 19, at 6:30
p.m. To add a bit of novelty to this
annual affair, the place of the sup-per
has been changed. This year it
will be held in the second floor of
Hagstrom Residence. Each family
is to bring its own table service
and a covered dish.
Help for local student govern-ment
problems and opportunities
for the exchange of ideas on a
national level are available to par-ticipating
schools through the an-nually
held National Student con-gress.
Such things as clinics and
workshops conducted on a regional
or campus level, publications and
periodicals published by the NSA,
and the Student Government In-formation
service are all part of
the services available through
NSA.
NSA also plans and promotes
intercollegiate projects such as
the Student Travel Program, of-fering
some of the lowest cost stu-dent
tours to Europe, the Middle
East, Canada and Mexico; foreign
student programs providing for
visits and tours by foreign stu-dents;
and a student discount ser-vice,
a system of discounts at com-munity
stores for students by ar-rangement
of the local student
government.
Officers of the NSA are elect-ed
by student representatives at
the national and regional levels.
NSA is financed by membership
clues, grants and gifts, and the
sale of its publicatiions.
State Offices
Won by Moberg,
Miss Danielson
Two members of Bethel's fac-ulty,
Dr. David Moberg, chairman
of the social sciences department,
and Miss Betty Danielson, instruc-tor
in social work, were elected
to offices at the annual meeting
of the Minnesota Conference of
Social Work Education.
Dr. Moberg was re-elected as
treasurer of the statewide organi-zation
while Miss Danielson was
elected to the executive commit-tee.
The Minnesota Conference on
Social Work Education, organized
about 20 years ago, has two ma-jor
objectives: a more efficient
plan of recruitment and a higher
quality of educational facilities for
prospective social workers.
Plans are being made to invite
the conference to have its spring
meeting on the Bethel campus.
Of the three different types of
membership in the conference, the
largest number of representatives
are individuals teaching in the
area of social work and profes-sional
social workers. The other
two categories are social work
agencies and colleges and the
graduate school of social work at
the University.

Nat'l Association
Deeper Life Messages
On December 10, the administration of Bethel seminary was noti-fied
of the seminary's admittance into the American Association of
Theological Seminaries as an associate member.
This decision, approved by the
association at a meeting held in
New York City Dec. 7 and 8 ad-mits
the school to the only accred-iting
association for theological
seminaries in the United States.
The rank of associate member
does not, however, signify full ac-creditation.
It does mean that the
seminary is listed in the associa-tion's
bulletin; taind this is expect-ed
to give the school added pres-tige
and recognition. The goal of
the seminary is' full membership
in the association.

application at this time is partly
due, according to Dean Omark, to
the fact that a sufficient degree of
separateness has been shown to
exist between the seminary and
the college, particularly in regard
to the library and the financial
structure.
Other qualifications which the
seminary was required to meet
for admittance concerned the num-bers
of full-time, qualified teach-ers,
the number of students, and
operation on a post-college level
with the maintenance of a strong
educational program.
Five students, representing all
college classes, maintained "A"
averages during fall quarter. They
are Linden Magnuson, senior;
George Dvirnak, junior; Evan
Rogers, sophomore; and Richard

Rev. Wessman's messages, the
first of which he brought in chapel
yesterday, are built around the
general text of II Corinthians 5:17,
"All things are become new." In-dividual
topics include "A New
Being," "New Horizons," "A New
Dependence," "New Paths," and
"A New Urgency".
Rev. Wessman is popularly ac-cepted
as a youth counsellor every-where
he goes, as well as in his
own church and the Sioux Falls
penitentary where he serves as
chaplain.
He has served on the Sioux
Falls college board of trustees and
at pres.ent is chairman of Bethel's
board of education. He has acted
as moderator of the Baptist Gen-eral
conference and has been a
member of the conference board of
trustees. Rev. Wessman received
his Th.B. from Bethel seminary
and his B.A. from Augusta.na col-lege.

New Bell System
Now Installed
Financed by the 1956 class gift,
an IBM master time and program
control system was installed in
the college building and the lib-rary
during Christmas vacation.
The four new clocks are super-vised
each hour and are individ-ually
advanced or retarded to cor-respond
to master clock time.
Chimes have been ordered for the
upstairs library and for Pres.
Lundquist's, office.
The new bell system replaces
one which has been serving the
school for 35 years'. Dean Omark,
then a .student in. the academy,
presented the first system as a
class gift in 1921.
Wessman's topic in the
of the third in a series
Central Baptist church in Sioux
counsel with Rev. Wessman should
make appointments with Bonnie
Toews in the Student Affairs of-fice.
Students are also encouraged
to seek out faculty members from
whom they can receive guidance.
Prayer services will fallow each
evening's vesper service in the
side room of the college chapel.
Film on Greece
To Be Shown
"The Ancient World: Greece"
will be shown in the college chapel
at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 19. This is the
second film that the cultural coun-cil
has sponsored this year.
In the film Greek civilization of
the fifth century before Christ is
expressed in the literature and art
of the time which has been dis-covered.
The narration has been
drawn entirely from translations
of the works of ancient Greek au-thors.
The religious philosophy of an-cient
Greece is discussed with
stories of seven of the more im-portant
gods, concluding with
Athena.
Development of Greek civiliza-tion
from earliest times to the
Golden Age with descriptions of
the Minoan civilization are fea-tured.
Pericles' reign during the Gold-en
Age was the period when, "all
things, all around, were teeming
with the mellow gifts of peace".
The works of this time have been
described as follows: "The works
grew, all surpassing in their mag-nitude,
. . . as if they were pos-sessed
of a spirit that can never
fade and a soul that never grows
old."
The finest works of the times
are shown throughout the film.
Such things as ceramic paintings,
sculpture and monumental archi-tecture
add interest to the film.
The musical score was composed
by .Menelaas Pallandios and per-formed
by the Athens Symphony
Orchestra.

During their first two months in the United States, the Bethel-sponsored
Domke family has been introduced to some uniquely American
institutions such as drive-in restaurants, supermarkets, and Halloween
parties.
Bethel students will remember that Mrs. Olga Domke arrived from
Germany a week after homecoming with her two 'daughters and a son.
Erika, 24, is now working in a downtown' dress shop; Lilli, 21, is doing
housework for another family; and Erwin, 27, is an orderly in the
Swedish hospital in Minneapolis.
The Domkes live in a four-room apartment located at 761 N.
Snelling avenue (across from Hamline university). The spaciousness
of the .apartment was strange to them as they were used to the one-room-
per-family arrangement, so common in Europe; they were also
surprised by the central heating and hot and cold running water which
are rare outside of the United States.
Although they knew no English when they arrived here, they are
readily picking it up with the aid of the many friends they have made
at Bethel and at Central Baptist church where they attend.

More on School Spirit
Dear Editor:
I have noticed several references
to our lack of school spirit in re-cent
editions of the CLARION. I
agree with the editors that it
could be improved, but I haven't
seen any concrete suggestions.
An individual who has school
spirit feels himself to be part of
all that goes on on the campus.
He isn't an aloof spectator whose
only remark when a new event is
announced is "What are they do-ing
now?" School spirit is the
sum total of the kind of spirit
each one of us shows as individ-uals.
Before we become critical
next time, let's ask ourselves,
"What kind of a spirit am I show-ing
? Am I just a drag on those
who are contributing?" . . .
It is nice to be entertained by
the endless variety of campus ac-tivities,
but only when we have
helped bring these things about,
will we really know the thrill at-tached
to them. We get out ex-actly
what we have put in. If you
come to the Sno Daze banquet
certain that it will be dull and un-interesting,
it probably will be. If
you come with expectance you
will be rewarded. To have real
school spirit, we must throw our-selves
enthusiastically into every-thing
we take part in. We should
become so identified with the or-ganizations
we belong to that our
loyalty to them and to our school
will exceed our concern for self.
Of course, there are those for
whom no thing in the entire world
of reality could generate any en-thusiasm.
Whether we announce a
musical convocation, play or even
Christmas vacation, they are
negative. For them to generate
school spirit, we will have to cre-ate
imaginary heros on the cam-pus.
I suggest we install a comic
book rack with comics depicting
President Lundquist as Superman,
Dean Larson as Dick Tracy, and
Dean Anderson as the Lone Ran-ger.
With Superman to rescue
them from the grips of the villain-ous
professors, Tracy to ferret
out the crooks who are getting
rich on the exorbitant profits of
the coffee shop, and the Lone Ran-ger
to gallop over to the brutal
dorm supervisor and prove their
innocence, they would be able to
identify themselves with "real"
heros, and escape all their trou-bles
besides!
Nuf sad?

Why Not Here?
Dear Editor:
Each week I read some thirty
or more newspapers from other
colleges and universities around
the United States to see if there
are any articles worth reprinting
in the CLARION. While doing so,
I note many items that are of in-terest
to other campuses. All this
leads me to ask the following
It Happens
Every Year
Three campus couples announc-ed
their engagements during
Christmas vacation. Bobbie Wall
and Ed Brunzell, and Sheila New-lander
and Ken Albright chose
Chicago while Lillian Boyer and
John Reed became engaged in Cal-if
ornia.
Seven Bethel students and one
faculty member became engaged
to someone at home. Sporting
sparklers when classes resumed
were Betty Mattson, Beth Magnu-son,
Lois Bienhoiff, Carol Tschetter
and Miss Kennedy, instructor of
music. Neil Anderson, Dick Otto-son,
and Bob Reynolds "jumped
through the hoop" as one of them
put it. Bob Reynolds became en-gaged
to Bev Bowman who attend-ed
Bethel last year.
Congratulations!
Happy ew Year
Some resolutions that will never
be made:
Mr. Healy: "I resolve to stop
wearing elevator shoes."
DT. Bass : "I resolve to drink
nothing but coffee."
Dr. Conrad: "I resolve not to
cheer at Bethel games."
Dr. Grabill: "I resolve to stop
asking pointed questions."
Mr. Dalton: "I resolve to vote
straight Republican."
Mr. C. H. Smith: "I resolve to
allow unlimited choir cuts."
Miss Nelson: "I resolve to give
all the girls three &docks once a
week."
Mr. Peterson: "I resolve to buy
a hi-fi-set for all rooms in Edgren
residence."
Miss Axeen: "I resolve to buy
nothing but Pogo for the library."
Mr. Engwall: "I resolve to stop
telling.jakes in class."
questions:
1. Why is there both no mention
of, no interest in, the annual com-petition
for "Who's Who Among
Students in American Universities
and Colleges?" This is a listing of
campus leaders in every field, and
from some of the mediocre ac-complishments
that other cam-puses
boast their leaders of hav-ing,
I am sure that Bethel would
more than qualify for some of our
student leaders to get in.
2. Why is there not a group
health program similar to the Blue
Cross-Blue Shield plan in effect
for our students ? Other schools
have it and the students get lower
rates than they would on their
own. This would provide much
greater coverage than the present
health program does with its limi-ted
benefits.
3. Why is there no medium for
the students to express themselves
creatively in ? I refer to a so-called
"literary supplement" or
once-a-year publication that would
have the best articles, short-stor-ies,
poetry, etc., in it. This is not
a project for a campus newspaper
such as the CLARION because
there is too much expense and
work involved for the regular
staff to handle.
Possibly there are simple an-swers
to all these questions. If so,
then there has been no mention
either of the questions or the an-swers
in the little over two years
that I have been here.

The beginning of any year is
characterized by a review of the
past and an anticipation of •the
future. In a business this is known
as taking inventory.
Have you ever stopped to take
inventory of what you appreciate
most about Bethel? I was forced
to do so after a friend asked me
that question.
Many things came to my mind:
the facilities, the students, the
teachers, etc., but every school has
these. After much thought and
reminiscing over the past years, I
believe the thing that I apprec-iate
most about Bethel is one of
the principles upon which John
Elexis Edgren founded the Semin-ary
some eight decades ago and
which persists until today:
"The relation between teachers
and students should not be that
of superior and subordinate, but
one of real friendship and help-fulness,
remembering that one is
our master, and we are all bre-thren."
As students, we appreciate this
atmosphere and hope it will con-tinue.

Christmas had a touch of home
this year for Marcia Cheng of
Hong Kong, who attended a party
for Chinese students. Instead of
turkey, the menu called for Wan

Our familiar carols were sung, in
Chinese.
Nancy Choi celebrated the holi-day

Leviticus 25: 35-7
In the December 28 "Standard" Pres. Lundquist presented some
irderesting figures on student aid and some good goals. The need for
long-term loans for students is clear, as the president said.
However, it seems to us that the biggest weakness of our present
system is the exharbitant 12 per cent (one per cent a month) usury
assessed.
One defense made of this rate is that the interest is returned to
the fund. But this is really taxing the poorer students, just when they
most need money, to provide for students of the future. Is this right?
If it is, why should not the rich be taxed as well?
Another argument for the 12 per cent grab is' that not all students
pay back their loans. But Pres. Lundquist's article says that the re-payment
has been "good and generally prompt." And why should only
the poorer students pay for others' lack of ethics?
We feel that loans should be made interest-free throughout the
year and .a reasonable rate of five or six per cent charged only through-out
the .summer or after graduation. If it is argued that we are too
poor or small a school to have this program similar to Wheaton's, we
point to Bryan university's program. They have fewer facilities and
only 275 students.
It is interesting to note that if all the money in the loan fund
($11,000) is in use throughout the entire school year (nine months),
the interest will double the principal in eight years. And all at the
poorer students' expense.
Clarion Opinion
The CLARION, or any other newspaper, is generally agreed to
exist for the reflection of opinion as well to print news. But the ques-tion
that must be answered to complete this statement is "Whose
opinion should it be?"
There are several possible answers, one of which we believe to
correct.
Some might say that the CLARION should reflect the opinion
of the student body. They give most to its support. And shouldn't the
paper cover the gamut •o f student life?
Others, who like to think of close co-operation between students,
faculty, and administration might think that the CLARION should be
a mouthpiece for the whole campus community. Advances have been
made lately in giving students a greater voice in academic and admini-strative
matters; this action should work both ways.
There remains another answer—that the paper should express the
'opinion of its editorial staff. This, it seems to us, is the best answer,
and this is no because of our Machiavellianism.
To reflect mass student opinion would be nearly impossible, and
would make the CLARION a mere Spire supplement, recording cam-pus
thought for the year. Putting up a united front with the faculty
and administration as well would mean the stoppage of all self-criticism.
It takes the expression of the viewpoints of only a few persons to
accomplish what we believe to be the basic reason for including opinion
in the CLARION—that is, to create opinion in the minds of our readers.

Bill Conrad led second half scoring as he picked up 12 points. Bob
Pommerenke and Howie Rekstad were close on his heels each hitting
11 points.
Ragged play characterized the closing minutes for General Beadle,
giving the Royals several scoring opportunities.
Four Royals were in the double figures when the final totals were
registered. Bill Conrad led with 24; Bob Pommerenke and Rekstad fol-lowed
with 21; and Westin hit ten..
Bob Rumrill and Darrell Davis picked up 19 and 16 points respec-tively

Milton Takes
Bethel Places
Milton college from Milton Wis-consin
won the unofficial cham-pionship
of the Twin City Invi-tational
Tournament, played at
Bethel Dec. 28 and 29, by knock-ing
off Bethel and Northwestern
on successive nights.
In Friday night's contest with
Bethel they were pressed to win
as they topped the Royals 78-74.
It was a game of excellent guard
play with Milton's Shultz and
Bartz scoring 22 and 18 points
respectively with their driving
tactics.
Bethel's guards, Conrad, Porn-merenke,
and Singleton threw in
25, 8, and 4 to give the Royals
half their points. Rekstad and
Borms scored 11, and 13 points far
the other important offensive con-tributions.
Milton continued its successful
ways by beating Northwestern 81-
71, thanks to a fine rebounding
game by Podwell and Sisson, to
became the only completely suc-cessful
team in the tournament.
Bethel, in their Saturday night's
game, tipped Aurora, the fourth
team in the tourney, 69-65 in a
rather weird contest. The Aurora
coach, seeking to keep his team
from a shellacking similar to the
one pit had received from North-western
the night before, had his
team stalling. Then fanned
out 30 - 50 feet out from
the basket and passed the
ball around until someone saw an
opportunity to drive in for a lay-up.
Bethel Halts
Holiday Foes
Bethel's basketball team rolled
up two straight vacation triumphs
prior to the Twin City Invitational
Tourney, by handily defeating
Wahpeton 83-66 Dec. 14, and stop-ping
Huron 75-63 Dec. 20. Both
games were played at home.
In the Wahpeton game, Bethel
rolled up a comfortable 42-30 half
time advantage, and coasted home
on the scoring of Rekstad and
Westin who scored 22 and 15
paints respectively.
Huron played the Royals on
practically even terms the first
half as they were only two down,
35-33 at intermission. But Pom-merenke
and Conrad, with strong
help from centers Rekstad and
Westin, led the team to its vic-tory
before the meager crowd.

Bethel in the first half played
a straight man for man and Aurora
managed to hold Bethel to a 27-25
halftime advantage. But by play-ing
a two man. zone and a three
man press to keep Aurora from
stalling, Bethel solved their of-fense
and piled up a 10 point ad-vantage'
by the waning minutes.
When Bethel's second stringers
were sent in, Aurora closed the
gap to its final four point deficit.
Royals Top Beadle 89-68
The Bethel Royal h'ardwood'ers avenged a grid defeat by General Beadle, as they administered an 89-
68 shellacking to the visiting club last Friday night.
Three Royals hit double figures in the first half as Bethel built up a 48-29 half-time !advantage. Bill
Conrad led the way, picking up 12 points. Howie Rekstad and Bob Pommerenke each scored ten points.
Bob Rumrill, the 6'4" guard, and Darrell Davies garnered nine and eight points respectively for General
Beadle T. C.
Bethel took an early 4 - 2 advantage and was never headed. Rebounding and more solid teamwork
paved the way to the Royal victory.
Early in the 'second half the General Beadle five caught fire temorarily and closed the gap to seven
points at one stage. A Royal time out apparently put them back together, as they spurted to the final
89-69 winning margin.

NSA Explained to Senate
Guest speaker at the last Student Senate meeting, December 13,
was Jim Greeno, Student Congress president at the University of
Minnesota and Regional Chairman of the National Student association.
He explained the work of the NSA and spoke of the benefits for each
belonging school.
Approximately 300 college student bodies belong to this confedera-tion.
Bethel has been a member of the NSA for the past three years.
and last year Hope Seffens, a col-lege
junior, was elected Regional
Secretary for the Minnesota-Da-kota
region.
"The two paramount problems in
Russia are housing and agricultur-al
production," stated Dr. Henry
Dupre at convocation Friday, Janu-ary
4.
Last summer Dr. Dupre spent 12
days of a 6-week tour of Europe
in Russia with 49 other educators.
For several years Dr. Dupre, dean
and chairman of the history depart-ment
of Macalester college, has
been leading the Sherwood Eddy
tour of Europe.
During the tour Dr. Dupre had
conferences with Antoine Pinay,
French foreign minister, George
Bohlen, United States ambassador
to Russia, and Marshall Tito, Yugo-slav
dictator, at which the Russian
situation was discussed.
Following the interview with Ti-to
the group flew to Kiev, the capi-tal
of the Ukraine. Moscow and
Leningrad were the other chief
cities visited.

and industrial expositions

they spoke to officers on the farms,
the ambassador, pastors, priests, a
Jewish rabbi, and the common peo-ple
gave the educators an interest-ing
understanding of Russian life.
Dr. Dupre described the people
as warm, friendly, healthy, dressed
in nondescript taste, and uninter-ested
in the Communist ideology.
Propaganda is by far the biggest
business in Russia according to Dr.
Dupre. There are 6,000 schools to
train 185,000 students to be pro-fessional
agitators.
Dr. Dupre emphasized Russia's
educational program, quoting Sta-lin
who called education a weapon.
He described the educational sys-tem
which is based on a ten-year
school program compulsory for all
between the ages of 7 and 17.
Young people attending the Uni-versity
of Moscow receive free tui-tion
and stipends according to
grades.
In conclusion Dr. Dupre describ-ed
religion in Russia. He quoted
William 0. Douglas, recently re-turned
from visiting Russia, as
saying, "Religion will last as long
as the Russian people."
Seven Bethel faculty members
spent part of their Christmas va-cation
in attending out-of-town
academic conferences in their res-pective
fields.
Dr. Richard Curtis, associate
professor of speech, traveled to
Chicago for a meeting of the
Speech Association of America. Dr.
Paul Grabill, assistant professor
of English, and Dr. Virginia Gra-bill,
professor of English, spent
four days at the annual Modern
Language association meetings in
Washington, D.C.
The annual convention of the
American Society of Church His-tory
was attended by Dr. Virgil
Olson, seminary professor of
Church History.
Some teachers took in more than
one conference. Reuben Omark,
professor of Exegetical Theology,
attended the annual meetings of
the Society for Bible Literature
and Exegesis held at Union Sem-inary
in New York City and then
left for Philadelphia for a confer-ence
of the Evangelical Theologi-cal
society.
Dr. Anton Pearson, professor of
Old Testament Language and Lit-erature,
attended four conferences
in three days. Traveling to New
York with Prof. Omark for the
meetings on Bible Literature and
Exegesis, he remained there for
convention's of the National As-sociation
of Professors of Heb-rew
and the National Association
of Bible Instructors, and a Textual
Criticism seminar.
Gift Sent by Wives
To N. Minn. Family
In kepeing with the Student
Wives project theme, "Doing for
0:hers", a large box of clothing
and food was sent to a needy min-ister
and his family in northern
Minnesota. To the last meeting on
Dec. 10 each student wife brought
food, good used clothing, and mon-ey
to buy new clothes for the
family.
At this meeting, the student
wives also decided on their project
for the year, which will be to send
money to the Tezpur hospital in
Assam, India. Funds for this pro-ject
will be raised through offer-ings
taken at the regular monthly
meetings.
Dr. Bass Meets
A Samaritan
During the activity of the Huron-
Bethel vacation-time basketball
game, T. B. Bass rushed into the
fieldhouse. He was moving and
needed the aid of some strong,
hefty men to help him carry a
barrel of china. Eager to help,
Bill MacKinney volunteered to as-sist
T. B. in hoisting the mon-strous
burden up a flight of stairs
nearly as long as eternity.
While T. B. was fumbling with
his door key, Bill picked up the
barrel and carried it inside all by
himself. T. B. thanked Bill and
toddled away.
ThatcherCommends
Bethel Students
Bethelites employed by the Far-mers'
Union Grain Terminal are
paid a high compliment by M. W.
Thatcher, general manager of G.
T. A., in a recent letter to Presi-dent
Lundquist.
"I want to say to you," writes
Mr. Thatcher, "what I have said
many, many times to others—the
students whom you sent us for
part-time work in G. T. A. are cer-tainly
outstanding. Their Christ-ian
understanding and approach
to all problems has been a very
real inspiration to many of us ov-er
here.
"I want to sincerely commend you
for the outstanding contributions
which Bethel College is making to-ward
the enrichment of our lives
and those of the countless thou-sands
that will be touched by your
seminarians and pastors out over
the world."
Supper Planned
By Hagstromites
Hagstrom residents are planning
a pot luck supper for all married
students and their families on cam-pus
on Saturday, Jan. 19, at 6:30
p.m. To add a bit of novelty to this
annual affair, the place of the sup-per
has been changed. This year it
will be held in the second floor of
Hagstrom Residence. Each family
is to bring its own table service
and a covered dish.
Help for local student govern-ment
problems and opportunities
for the exchange of ideas on a
national level are available to par-ticipating
schools through the an-nually
held National Student con-gress.
Such things as clinics and
workshops conducted on a regional
or campus level, publications and
periodicals published by the NSA,
and the Student Government In-formation
service are all part of
the services available through
NSA.
NSA also plans and promotes
intercollegiate projects such as
the Student Travel Program, of-fering
some of the lowest cost stu-dent
tours to Europe, the Middle
East, Canada and Mexico; foreign
student programs providing for
visits and tours by foreign stu-dents;
and a student discount ser-vice,
a system of discounts at com-munity
stores for students by ar-rangement
of the local student
government.
Officers of the NSA are elect-ed
by student representatives at
the national and regional levels.
NSA is financed by membership
clues, grants and gifts, and the
sale of its publicatiions.
State Offices
Won by Moberg,
Miss Danielson
Two members of Bethel's fac-ulty,
Dr. David Moberg, chairman
of the social sciences department,
and Miss Betty Danielson, instruc-tor
in social work, were elected
to offices at the annual meeting
of the Minnesota Conference of
Social Work Education.
Dr. Moberg was re-elected as
treasurer of the statewide organi-zation
while Miss Danielson was
elected to the executive commit-tee.
The Minnesota Conference on
Social Work Education, organized
about 20 years ago, has two ma-jor
objectives: a more efficient
plan of recruitment and a higher
quality of educational facilities for
prospective social workers.
Plans are being made to invite
the conference to have its spring
meeting on the Bethel campus.
Of the three different types of
membership in the conference, the
largest number of representatives
are individuals teaching in the
area of social work and profes-sional
social workers. The other
two categories are social work
agencies and colleges and the
graduate school of social work at
the University.
